Seattle or tacoma, WA Epson 750V

[light gallery]

<p>Hello friends.<br>

I am hoping to find someone with an Epson 750V scanner in the Tacoma or Seattle, WA area willing to let me wet mount scan one of my pristine 4x5 color transparencies. I have read so many posts about this scanner and my head is spinning. Too much information!<br>

My goal is to continue to use 4x5 transparency film, scan and print digitally. I've heard good thnigs about teh 750V, but before I invest in one, I'd really like to see what the results are like. Glazer's in Seattle has a 700 they will demonstrate for me, but I would rather it be the 750V with teh wet nount capability.<br>

Hope to hear from you.<br>

<p>Hi, Walt!<br>

You could rent time in Photographic Center Northwest, they have this scanner. I don't know how optimistic they will be about letting you to do wet mount... Check this out -- <a href="http://www.pcnw.org/facilities/digital.php">http://www.pcnw.org/facilities/digital.php</a>. You have to pay year membership, then rent. I am using this place for wide format printing.<br>

I am using my scanner with 4x5 with success, but I am too lazy to do wet mounting. Epson's mounting holder needs a bit of work to be more useful, there is third party solution, but in my opinion it is way overpriced piece of plastic.<br>

<p>I highly value my betterscanning holder with ANR glass, it makes it much quicker and easier to scan.</p>
